“You seem to replace your brain with your heart
You take things so hard and then you fall apart

You try to explain but before you can start
Those cry baby tears come out of the dark

Someone's turning the handle to that faucet in your eyes
They're pouring out where everyone can see

Your heart's too big for your body
It's why you won't fit inside
You pour it out where everyone can see

They call you cry baby, cry baby but you don't fucking care
Cry baby, cry baby, so you laugh through your tears
Cry baby, cry baby, cause you don't fucking care
Tears fall to the ground so you just let them drown”

Listen and Get Inspired!

Music and my personal brand of art will always be deeply intertwined. While I create, there is almost always a song or a lyric that inspired the feeling, that in turn inspires my art. This piece was inspired by lyrics from the song Cry Baby by Melanie Martinez and the OG crybaby - Usagi Tsukino, also known as Sailor Moon.

Check out the song that started it all and support the artist who helped me create mine (by giving their music a listen)!
